Kachito, Zotawa, and Jeremī got Lei-Lei's location from the official after Ugajin was exorcised. They were currently overlooking the Sōsa clan estate. A giant temple with many rooms and chambers.
Zotawa: The plan is to go in there and save Lei-Lei got it.
Kachito and Jeremī nodded. The three descended down and entered the estate. It was barren. This room was anyway. They went through few rooms until they were attacked by a tiger like Yo-Kai, Byakko. Zotawa activated the Exorcism talismans and the three quickly exorcised Byakko. Compared to Ugajin and Dojin, a beast class was light work.
So they kept moving in the temple before encountering actual clan members. They were accompanied by a Yo-Kai called Baku. Then Zotawa remembered something.
Zotawa: Kachito, most of the Sōsa clan are Yo-Kai.
Kachito: Wait what?
Zotawa: They have special talismans that let them manipulate Yo-Kai. So they killed most of their members. There is like...four of them left including the leader.
Kachito and Jeremī just looked at him with a "are you serious?" expression. The three Sōsa clan members in the room were skinny and frail looking. Clearly their only strength was utilizing Yo-Kai. Unfortunately for them, Baku was a Human Class. So Kachito, Zotawa, and Jeremī cut through everything in the room.
Kachito kneeled down petting Jeremī.
Kachito: Good boy! Good boy!
Zotawa: AHEM!
Kachito snapped out of it and the three kept going through the estate. The spiritual pressure was low, clearly they had dismissed most of their Yo-Kai from the estate in hopes of defeating Kachito and Zotawa. Not Jeremī though. Because he's a dog. An Inugami sure, but still a dog.
They ran through the nearly entirely empty estate cutting through Human Class and Beast Class Yo-Kai until they reached a massive room filled the brim with Beast Class Yo-Kai. A mix of Byakko and Kappa all throughout the room.
Kachito: This is gonna take ages...
The three of them entered the room and started cutting through the Byakko and Kappa throughout the room.
AN HOUR LATER...
Kachito: Fuckin' finally...
The trio moved into the next room, they eventually reached the main chamber of the estate. Lei-Lei was tied up in the middle of the room with multiple wounds, most definitely from the torture.
Kachito ran up and started untying her.
Kachito: We found you! Don't worry we'll get you out of here!
As Kachito was untying her, Zotawa and Jeremī felt the aura of two Disaster Class Yo-Kai. Then, as Kachito had gotten Lei-Lei out and started carrying her he was blown back by the wind. Then two Yo-Kai appeared. Fujin, Lord of Wind. And Raijin, Lord of Lightning. From between them stepped the Sōsa clan leader, Masutā Sōsa.
Masutā: You have come. The Global Government informed me you would. Now, prepare to die at the hands of the Yo-Kai born from the souls of the Sōsa ancestors-
A hand ripped through Masutā. The hand had ripped out his heart.
Masutā: You...you damn...
Masutā fell dead on the floor. With him dead, Fujin and Raijin left as they were no longer under his control. Now the only one there apart from the main quadro was the one who killed Masutā.
Lei-Lei: Kachito...
Kachito: Huh?
Lei-Lei: That’s the last Oni Council member other than the Lord...you'll have to kill him. But...I can help just...give me some time.
Kachito put her on Jeremī's back. And told him to take her somewhere she could safely hatch her plan.
Then, Kachito and Zotawa were tossed out of the estate. They landed on their feet and watched as the Oni landed in front of them.
Sei-Sei: My name is Sei-Sei by the way. I'm Lei-Lei's big brother. And I was the one who abducted her.
Zotawa: Why are you telling us that dickweed.
Sei-Sei: SHIHIHAHAHA!!! I like my victims to know who killed them. It hurt extra when I killed me and Lei-Lei's family.
Kachito: You killed your own family and tortured your sister and our friend!? What's wrong with you!?
Sei-Sei laughed. Enjoying their rage and getting ready to fight.
Sei-Sei: I don't care. I did it because it brought a smile to my face. Hehe...I'll beat you two into the ground and when you are defeated...
He smiled maliciously.
Sei-Sei: I'll drink your blood, eat the skin and muscles off of your bones, consume the organs in your bodies! And I will relish killing and eating you.
Sei-Sei's grey skin with red tattoos painted a traditional image of insanity as in Han'ei those colors conveyed it. His red hair looked dyed by blood and his yellow eyes looked like those of a snake. Matching his personality.
Zotawa: Kachito, this asshole's pissing me off. Let's beat the shit out of him while Lei-Lei devises her plan.
Kachito: Agreed!
